Hi,
I hope someone can help me. I want to copy/transfer my files, (particularly a program Links 2003) to my new HDD. I bought PC Relocator to do this.
However I can't boot the old hd due to blue screen, since the hardware changed the hdd doesn't like it. I tried install repair for WIN XP Pro but still no go.
I can access the drive but it won't boot. Any way anyone knows how to copy / transfer files without booting to WIN XP Pro?
I made my first computer a few years ago but used a very cheap motherboard. I recently bought an ASUS P4P800SE which is great. I replaced my old PC Chips motherboard with the Asus and left all remaining hardware the same.
Also, WIN XP Pro will not restart (even though when I click the restart button on the case it will) It will not restart even when installing. Is this a problem with Asus? I never had a problem with PC Chips.
Not knowing any better, I originally tried to boot the system with the old hard drive. Now, I get blue screen. I researched and everything said to do a repair install but I get black screen for a short while during start up, and at end when it uninstalls temp files, it just stops and hangs.
Details of this system:
2.0A Intel P4 with 512 cache
512 MB Mushkin DDR RAM 2700 - 333
ATI AGP Video Card 8500 Special Edition
250 GB SATA Maxtor HDD
HP 9100 CD/RW
Buslink DVD/RW (Lite-on)
Buslink USB 2.0 PCI 5 port Adapter Card
ADS USB 2.0 Drive Enclosure Kit (not currently attached)
Floppy
Any help is greatly appreciated !
